[QUOTE="MommaTried24, post: 766172, member: 33205"] Just reflecting back this morning. My son was in jail for a few months since this original post. He got out October 11th. Since then he called me last Wednesday and said he's going to rehab. He was in a motel room for the night and supposed to call and go the next day. I've not heard from him and I've not checked on him. Trying to make him do this himself. I get an email from Vanderbilt Sunday afternoon (I've been the registered login for his medical records there since he was a kid) and he had a seizure and fell and hit his head in front of a business. A bystander witnessed it and called 911. They took him to the hospital and did a CT Scan and he was ok. Notes read he's not had his Zonegran which is his main seizure medication. I remember him saying Walgreens wouldn't refill it. That's his main drug that's helped him since he was 12. He's now been without it for 12 days. This is a medication he must take every 12 hours and cannot be abruptly stopped. Very dangerous. I get another email Monday from Vanderbilt that he's had another seizure and fell in public. Hit his head again and evidently walked from the mall to the hospital? This time he hit his head so hard that he had to have 3 staples put in. Hospital notes say on his record that he still hasn't gotten his Zonegran. He knows better than this. I don't understand why he's not getting it unless he's just tired of it? I remember it always being a struggle between the pharmacy, the doctor and the insurance all those years I was handling it for him. He's been doing it now himself the last 4 years. I have been worried sick but I've still not reached out. Last thing I told him was to call me when he got to rehab. I cannot do this with him anymore and I've told him that. I feel this stress is really taking a toll on my health. It's so true what you don't know won't hurt you. As a mother, I feel like I should go get him and admit him somewhere but I know this would prove to be futile. I am praying so hard for God to put someone in his path to help him. It has to be anybody but me. My heart is completely broken. I've watched him suffer seizures and the consequences of it since he was 10 years old. I just don't understand why he has to suffer so and now it seems to be self inflicted. Just had to let all that out. I've been holding it in and needed to type it out. Praying for guidance as to what I should do. I'm scared he's going to seize to death in his sleep or falls so hard the next time that it kills him. [/QUOTE]
